Not bad at all, nothing extremely phenomenal, but nothing too bad either. It is a fun watch.

Pros: 1. Good acting from Statham and the cops.

2. The sound effects are very "real-sounding", the soundtrack is reasonable.

3. Good graphics.

4. The plot is good, though it is not original in the slightest, it is good.

5. Very entertaining, highly entertaining and fun to watch.

6. The ending is fairly satisfying.

Cons: 1. The rest of the acting is not good in the slightest.

2. Very cliche plot.

3. The action sequences are visually horrific, all the cuts and frames can get annoying.

4. It feels dragged out, it can be boring at times, and it is far too slow, and that is a con since the movie is only about an hour and a half.

5. It is not realistic, there are many plot holes and the characters are not well developed.

Conclusion: Plot: 8.1/10, good plot for sure, but certainly not original anymore.

Acting: 7.2/10, terrible acting form some actors, and great acting from others.

Entertainment level: 8.7/10, highly entertaining except for a few boring scenes.

Emotional impact: 7.6/10, it can be emotional at times, like most action thrillers, they have added drama, but it is reasonable in this one.

Realism: 6.8/10, not very realistic.

Directing: 7.5/10, a little slow, as I said.

Characters: 6.9/10, not greatly developed, but not horrifically developed either.

Cinematography: 8.6/10, good cinematography, the action sequence cuts piss me off, but the audio is good, the soundtrack is reasonable, and other than the cuts, it is good.

Ending: 8.4/10, satisfying ending that is a good way to end it.

Final rating: 77.5%
